$200,000 Hood Ornaments - Rolls Royce Spirit of Ecstasy
[Edit]
[Edit]
Milady whines, “But Muffy’s Rolls is exactly like mine. Daddy bear, you don’t want me to be just like everybody else, do you?” So Daddy bear has her Rolls decorated with the Spirit of Ecstasy bonnet sculpture. This alone depletes her cookie jar money; it’s $200,000.
It’s made of platinum and diamonds… about 150 carats! One of a kind, to be sure, bub.
The mascot, known as the Spirit of Ecstasy, sits on every Rolls-Royce coming out of the factory. A one-of-a-kind mascot was commissioned by local luxury car dealership Manhattan Motorcars. Designer Jean Kemanjian described his creation, valued at $200,000, and the design process.
Four inches high by two inches across, the mascot is original to the car. "What inspired me was using the materials we used—the diamonds, platinum, and rare metals. We felt that doing something like this would be a tribute to the car itself."
